Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure belongs to the field of household appliance technology, specifically providing a pulping equipment control method and pulping equipment. Background Technology

[0002] With the advancement of technology and the improvement of people's living standards, various types of cooking appliances have emerged, greatly facilitating people's daily lives and gaining popularity among consumers.

[0003] Pulping equipment, such as soy milk makers, high-speed blenders, and automatic cleaning blenders, typically involves processes including scheduling, pulping, dispensing, and cleaning. During scheduling or pulping, detachable components may malfunction, such as improper lid fit, incorrect water tank installation, unstable voltage, misplacement of the pulp receiving cup, or misplacement of the residual water box. In existing technologies, for user and equipment safety, the equipment stops operating upon detecting any malfunction and resumes operation only after the malfunction is resolved. However, existing technologies frequently result in incomplete pulp preparation and excessive residue remaining on the mixing cup walls, leading to workflow failures.

[0004] Therefore, how to reduce the failure of the pulping equipment workflow when equipment malfunctions has become an urgent technical problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This disclosure aims to provide a pulping equipment control method and pulping equipment to solve the problem of reducing the failure of the pulping equipment's workflow when equipment malfunctions, and to improve the working efficiency of the pulping equipment.

[0006] In a first aspect, this disclosure provides a control method for a pulping apparatus, the pulping apparatus including a detachable discharge receiving device, the pulping apparatus having multiple operating stages, the control method including a first operating stage where no operation of the discharge receiving device is required and a discharge stage where operation of the discharge receiving device is required, the control method further including:

[0007] The pulping equipment enters a first working stage where no operation of the drain receiving device is required;

[0008] If the drainage receiving device is not installed in place, the abnormality of the drainage receiving device not being installed in place is ignored, and the first working stage is continued; wherein, the first working stage is before the drainage stage.

[0009] Optionally, after completing the first working stage, the control method further includes: determining whether the drain receiving device is installed in place.

[0010] When the drain receiving device is installed in place, the pulping equipment enters the drain stage, which requires operation of the drain receiving device;

[0011] When the detachable component is not installed in place, the control method further includes a waiting drainage phase.

[0012] Optionally, the step of ignoring the abnormality of the drainage receiving device not being installed properly and continuing to complete the first working stage when the drainage receiving device is not installed properly includes: issuing an alarm prompt for the drainage receiving device not being installed properly.

[0013] Optionally, the alarm continues until the drainage receiving device is installed in place.

[0014] Optionally, the drain receiving device is a slurry receiving cup, and the drain stage is a slurry draining stage.

[0015] Optionally, the first working stage is a pulping stage or a reservation stage. If an abnormality occurs in the receiving cup during the pulping stage or the reservation stage, the pulping stage or the reservation stage shall continue to be executed to ensure that the pulp can be produced.

[0016] Optionally, when all preset working stages before the slurry discharge stage are completed, it is determined whether the slurry receiving cup is installed in place. If the slurry receiving cup is not installed in place, the method further includes:

[0017] The pulping equipment is controlled to enter a heat preservation state to keep the pulp at a constant temperature;

[0018] And / or,

[0019] The stirring device of the pulping equipment is controlled to stir for a preset duration at a first preset speed according to a preset time interval.

[0020] Optionally, the drain receiving device for Residual water box, the drainage stage for During the wastewater discharge stage, if an abnormality is detected in the residual water box during the cleaning process, the cleaning will continue, and an abnormality warning will be issued for the residual water box.

[0021] Optionally, the process may further include the following steps before proceeding to the drainage stage:

[0022] During the preset working stage before the completion of the wastewater discharge stage, it is determined whether the wastewater receiving device is installed in place.

[0023] When the cleaning wastewater receiving device is not installed in place, the pulping equipment is controlled to enter the cleaning and holding stage. The cleaning and holding stage includes a combination of one or more of the following actions: the agitator stirs the cleaning water; the cleaning water is heated and kept at a constant temperature; and the cleaning water is injected again.

[0024] In a second aspect, this disclosure provides a pulping apparatus, the pulping apparatus including a body and detachable components, the body including a processing chamber and a stirring element for stirring materials, the pulping apparatus including a processor, a memory and execution instructions stored in the memory, the execution instructions being configured to enable the pulping apparatus to perform the pulping apparatus control method described in any one of the first aspects when executed by the processor.

[0025] In this control method, for specific stages (working stages that can be executed normally) where no operation of the detachable components is required, the installation abnormality is ignored and the working stage continues to be executed. This can minimize the failure of the pulping equipment's workflow, improve the efficiency of the process, enhance the user experience, and also avoid food waste.

[0026] Furthermore, if the receiving cup malfunctions before the discharge stage, since the malfunction does not affect the pre-production or pulping stages, the pulping equipment can continue to execute these stages. This ensures that pulp production can still be completed even when the receiving cup malfunctions. Once the malfunction is resolved (e.g., the user resets the receiving cup), the prepared pulp can be discharged normally, and subsequent cleaning processes can proceed as planned. Therefore, the pulping process can be completed even when the receiving cup malfunctions, preventing process failure.

[0027] Furthermore, when the wastewater receiving device malfunctions, i.e. when the residual water box malfunctions, after the normal completion of the pre-cleaning work stages, during the cleaning stage, there is a cleaning maintenance stage, which can be used to enter a continuous cleaning mode. Food residue in the pulping container will not dry on the cup wall, and food residue at the bottom of the heating plate will not stick to the heating plate. During the continuous cleaning process, the cleaning state is well maintained. After the residual water box recovers from the malfunction, the wastewater can be discharged immediately without food residue sticking. Attached Figure Description

[0035] Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments described below are merely a part of the embodiments of this disclosure, and not all of the embodiments of this disclosure. These partial embodiments are intended to explain the technical principles of this disclosure and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this disclosure. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments provided in this disclosure without creative effort should still fall within the scope of protection of this disclosure.

[0036] As described in the background section, existing pulping equipment, for user and equipment safety, typically stops operation when an abnormal alarm occurs, waits for the abnormality to resolve, and then resumes operation. However, the inventors discovered that, according to the control logic of existing pulping equipment, situations may arise where the pulp cannot be cooked properly or is not thoroughly cleaned. Research revealed that in pulping equipment, such as automatic cleaning blenders, if the receiving cup is removed or not placed properly during the scheduling or operation process, the system stops stirring and heating and continuously alarms. Only when the receiving cup is placed properly again will the alarm be canceled and the previous operation resume. If the abnormality of the receiving cup not being placed occurs during the scheduling phase and continues for a long time before resuming, the scheduling time will be significantly off, resulting in a poor user experience. If the abnormality of the receiving cup not being placed occurs during the operation phase and continues for a long time before resuming, the pulp will cool to a low temperature, and even after resuming, the pulp cannot be cooked properly, causing pulping failure. During the automatic cleaning phase, a wastewater receiving device is needed to collect the cleaning wastewater. In the following embodiments, a wastewater collection box can be used to represent the wastewater receiving device for description. The residual water box may be displaced, removed, or mismatched, causing it to malfunction. The pulping equipment will then stop stirring and heating and issue an alarm. Cleaning will resume after the residual water box recovers. However, if the residual water box is missing for an extended period, pulp residue will gradually dry and adhere to the mixing cup wall. This residue may also sink to the bottom and stick to the heating plate, making it impossible to clean properly after the residual water box is restored. This results in low efficiency of the pulping equipment, a poor user experience, and requires the user to restart deep cleaning, causing automatic cleaning failure. For user and equipment safety, the equipment should stop operating when an malfunction alarm occurs. However, since malfunctions can occur in different removable components, and the impact of malfunctions in different removable components varies, ensuring successful pulping or cleaning while maintaining equipment safety during malfunctions is the technical problem this disclosure aims to solve. Based on this, embodiments of this disclosure provide a pulping equipment control method, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the control method includes S101, S102 and S103.

[0037] In this embodiment, the pulping equipment may include a soy milk maker, a high-speed blender, a juicer, etc.

[0038] S101: The pulping equipment enters a first working stage where no operation of the detachable components is required.

[0039] S102: If the detachable component is not installed in place, ignore the abnormality of the detachable component not being installed in place and continue to complete the first working stage;

[0040] S103: When the detachable component is installed in place, the pulping equipment enters a second working stage that requires operation of the detachable component, wherein the first working stage precedes the second working stage.

[0041] The pulping equipment includes detachable components and has multiple operating stages. In some operating stages, the detachable components may experience installation abnormalities (including improper installation). However, in other operating stages, the installation abnormalities of certain detachable components have little or no impact on the operating stage. That is, operating stages that can be performed normally are executed without affecting equipment and personnel safety. In this control method, for specific stages (operating stages that can be performed normally) where no operation of the detachable components is required, the installation abnormality is ignored, and the operating stage continues to be executed. This can minimize the failure of the pulping equipment's workflow, improve workflow efficiency, enhance user experience, and also avoid food waste.

[0042] If the detachable component is not properly installed after the first working stage is completed, the control method further includes a waiting working stage. The second working stage requires operation on the detachable component. If, when entering the second working stage after the first working stage, the detachable component still has installation abnormalities (including not being properly installed), the pulping equipment enters the waiting working stage, waiting for the detachable component abnormality to be resolved before executing the second working stage.

[0043] As an exemplary embodiment, the waiting working stage includes: controlling the pulping equipment to stop until the detachable component is installed in place; or controlling the pulping equipment to continue working in the first working stage until the detachable component is installed in place or a preset time is exceeded, and the pulping equipment can be stopped after continuing to work in the first working stage for more than the preset time.

[0044] As an exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the control method for pulping equipment also includes S201, S202 and S203.

[0045] S201. Obtain abnormal signals from the pulping equipment. In this embodiment, the pulping equipment may include a soymilk maker, a blender, a juicer, etc. Abnormal signals from the pulping equipment can be obtained by sensors that detect abnormalities in each detachable component. For example, the detection of whether detachable components such as the water tank, the drain receiving device, and the cover are in place can be performed by sensors. The detection of some detachable components can also be performed by circuitry, such as the detection of the operating voltage of the pulping equipment.

[0046] S202. Determine the degree of influence of the detachable component corresponding to the abnormal signal in each working stage based on the abnormal signal. As an exemplary embodiment, different detachable components have different degrees of influence in each working stage. For example, the receiving cup does not participate in the working stage before slurry discharge; therefore, an abnormality in the receiving cup has virtually no impact on the working stage before slurry discharge, and its impact on the safety of people and equipment is also small. The stability of voltage has a much greater impact on heating and stirring in the pulping stage than on heating and stirring in the washing stage; different voltage fluctuations have different impacts on people and equipment in different working stages. The residual water box has virtually no impact on the working stage before discharging washing wastewater, and its impact on the safety of people and equipment is also small. Therefore, the degree of influence of the detachable component corresponding to different abnormal signals varies in different working stages. As an exemplary embodiment, the degree of influence can be determined by the following influence parameters: the participation degree of the detachable component in each working stage; the safety level of the pulping equipment when performing each working stage; and the safety level of the user when the pulping equipment performs each working stage. As an exemplary embodiment, the influence can be quantified based on influence parameters. For example, the influence can range from 1 to 0, with the value closer to 1 indicating a greater influence and the value closer to 0 indicating a smaller influence. For instance, the influence of a detachable component on each working stage and its order within a preset working sequence can be used to calculate the influence on each working stage of the entire pulping process. For example, if the receiving cup malfunctions, its participation in the pulp discharge stage is complete, but it does not participate in any working stages before pulp discharge. Therefore, the influence on the pulp discharge stage and subsequent working stages is 1, and the influence on the working stages before pulp discharge is 0. Similarly, if the wastewater box malfunctions, its participation in the wastewater discharge stage is complete, but it does not participate in any working stages before wastewater discharge. Therefore, the influence on the wastewater discharge stage and subsequent working stages is 1, and the influence on the working stages before wastewater discharge is 0. Additionally, as an optional embodiment, the impact of malfunctions in certain detachable components on all working stages of the overall system may be 1. For example, if the cover is not properly closed, it may affect user safety. In this case, the impact of the cover malfunction on all working stages is 1, and the pulping equipment will stop working. As an optional embodiment, regarding the operating voltage of the equipment, the impact on each stage can be calculated based on the difference between the operating voltage and the preset operating voltage. The larger the difference, the greater the impact. Furthermore, different working stages may have different impact coefficients for the current working stage. For example, the pulping stage and the cleaning stage may have different operating voltage requirements, and therefore different impact coefficients. Thus, the impact of voltage on each stage can be calculated for different stages.

[0047] S203. Based on the impact level, control the pulping equipment to execute the first working stage according to the first working state and the third working stage according to the third working state. As an exemplary embodiment, the first working state includes the working state of the working stage when the pulping equipment is operating normally, and the third working state includes the waiting working state of the working stage when the pulping equipment malfunctions. For example, when the impact level has little or no impact on some working stages, the working stages that can be executed normally can be executed according to the normal working stage execution order and execution logic. When the working stage that is greatly affected by the detachable components is reached, the pulping equipment can be controlled to enter the waiting working state to prevent the pulping equipment and personnel safety from being threatened.

[0048] Upon receiving an abnormal signal from the pulping equipment, the system first identifies the abnormal signal and determines the impact of the corresponding detachable components at each working stage. Based on this impact, the system controls the pulping equipment to execute normally functioning stages. When a stage with significant impact is encountered, the equipment is put into a waiting state. This allows the pulping equipment to execute normally functioning stages as much as possible, without compromising equipment and personnel safety, based on the varying impacts of the abnormal signal. In the event of equipment malfunction, while ensuring equipment and personnel safety, the system minimizes the likelihood of workflow failures, improves user experience, and avoids food waste.

[0049] As an exemplary embodiment, when the detachable component significantly impacts the corresponding working stage and cannot be executed in a normal working state, and the detachable component has no impact on the working stages preceding the non-operating working stage, the pulping equipment can execute the first working stage according to the first working state, i.e., the normal working state. When the first working stage is completed and the non-operating working stage is entered, it is determined whether the abnormal signal has been converted into a normal signal, i.e., whether the abnormality has been eliminated. If it has been converted into a normal signal, the subsequent working stages can be executed sequentially; otherwise, it enters a waiting working state. For example, the working stage corresponding to the detachable component can be any working stage. For instance, it can be the initial working stage of the pulping equipment. If the initial working stage cannot be executed normally, it can directly enter a waiting working state, for example, stop working, issue an alarm, and continue until the abnormality is eliminated. Alternatively, it can be that a certain intermediate working stage cannot be executed normally. The process can proceed normally from the initial working stage to the non-operating working stage. When the non-operating working stage is entered, if the abnormality is eliminated, the working stages can be executed sequentially; if the abnormality is not eliminated, it enters a waiting working state.

[0050] As an optional embodiment, the second working stage is a drainage stage. When the detachable component is a drainage receiving device, before entering the drainage stage, the pulping equipment is controlled to continue working according to the preset working stage execution sequence before the drainage stage, until the drainage stage is entered, at which point the pulping equipment is controlled to enter the waiting drainage stage.

[0051] Because the drain receiving device can trigger equipment malfunction alarms, such as the receiving cup and / or residual water box not being properly positioned, causing the pulping equipment to stop working, but the improper placement of the drain receiving device has virtually no impact on non-draining operation stages, such as the pulping stage and the reservation stage, and has no impact on user safety or equipment safety, when the drain receiving device malfunctions, the pulping equipment can be controlled to continue working according to the preset operation sequence before entering the draining stage, until entering the draining stage, at which point the pulping equipment can be controlled to enter the waiting state for the draining stage. For example, if there are reservation and pulping stages before draining, and the drain receiving device malfunctions, since there is no draining during the reservation and pulping stages, the normal operation of the reservation and pulping stages is not affected, and the pulping equipment can be controlled to continue executing the reservation and pulping stages. After the previously normal operating phase is completed, if there is an abnormality in the drainage receiving device when entering the drainage phase, the drainage will be temporarily suspended and the system can enter a drainage waiting phase, such as continuing the stirring and heat preservation phases.

[0052] As an exemplary embodiment, for automatically cleaning pulping equipment, such as an automatically cleaning blender or an automatically cleaning soy milk maker, the draining stage can include a pulp draining stage after pulping is completed and a cleaning wastewater draining stage after automatic cleaning is completed. For example, the pulp draining stage corresponds to a pulp receiving cup, and the cleaning wastewater draining stage corresponds to a residual water box.

[0053] As an optional embodiment, taking the slurry receiving cup as an example, the slurry discharge stage will be described using the slurry discharge stage as an example:

[0054] Before entering the slurry discharge stage, after completing all the preset working stages prior to the slurry discharge stage, it is determined whether the abnormality of the slurry receiving cup has been resolved. If the abnormality of the slurry receiving cup has not been resolved, the pulping equipment is controlled to enter the heat preservation state to keep the slurry warm. When the abnormality of the slurry receiving cup is resolved, the pulping equipment can be controlled to discharge the slurry. Before the slurry discharge stage, if the slurry receiving cup is abnormal, since the abnormality of the slurry receiving cup does not affect the reservation stage and the pulping stage, the pulping equipment can be controlled to continue to execute the reservation stage and the pulping stage. This ensures that the slurry can still be made even when the slurry receiving cup is abnormal. After the abnormality of the slurry receiving cup is resolved, for example, if the user resets the slurry receiving cup, the made slurry can be discharged normally, and the subsequent cleaning process can also proceed normally. Therefore, it is possible to complete the pulping process even when the slurry receiving cup is abnormal, preventing the pulping process from failing.

[0055] When the receiving cup malfunctions, the pulping equipment can be controlled to issue an alarm message to remind the user to correct the malfunction. Before the malfunction is corrected, the pulp can be stirred and kept warm to ensure its taste. For example, the stirring device of the pulping equipment can be controlled to stir at a first preset speed for a preset duration according to a preset time interval and / or according to the sedimentation degree of the pulp. Specifically, the pulp can be stirred at the first preset speed for, for example, 5-30 seconds at any time interval between 1-3 minutes, or the sedimentation degree or turbidity of the pulp can be detected by a sensor, and stirring can be performed for, for example, 5-30 seconds when the preset sedimentation degree is reached. While stirring, to keep the pulp warm, a first temperature value of the pulp is obtained; if the first temperature value is lower than a first target temperature, the heating device of the pulping equipment is controlled to heat the pulp to the first target temperature.

[0056] As an exemplary embodiment, the workflow for handling abnormalities in the receiving cup will be described below using a specific exemplary embodiment:

[0057] In the reservation state, the status of the receiving cup needs to be continuously monitored. When the receiving cup is normal, the normal process branch is initiated; when the receiving cup malfunctions, the abnormal process branch is initiated. In the normal process branch, production begins immediately upon the reservation time, followed by slurry discharge and then the cleaning stage, completing the entire process. In the abnormal process branch, if an abnormality is detected in the receiving cup during the reservation process, the reservation continues. Simultaneously, an alarm is triggered, and the receiving cup's position is monitored in real time. If the receiving cup is in position, the abnormality alert is cleared; if the receiving cup is not in position, an abnormality alert must be continuously displayed.

[0058] After the reservation process is completed, the system enters the workflow. If an abnormality is detected in the receiving cup during the workflow, the pulping process continues. While issuing an alarm, it is necessary to continuously monitor whether the receiving cup is in place. If the receiving cup is in place, the abnormality warning is cleared; if the receiving cup is not in place, the abnormality warning should continue. After the workflow is completed, if the receiving cup abnormality is resolved, the normal workflow resumes, the pulp is discharged normally, and the system can enter self-cleaning mode. If the receiving cup abnormality does not resolve, the system enters a heat preservation state, and the operation display continuously indicates that the receiving cup is not in place until the user returns the receiving cup. At this point, the system performs a pulp discharge operation, and after the discharge is completed, it enters self-cleaning mode.

[0059] During the heat preservation process, stirring for 5 seconds every minute is required to prevent the slurry from coagulating in the stirring cup. The temperature of the slurry must be monitored in real time. If the temperature is below the set temperature, low-power heating (level 1) is used to heat the slurry to the target temperature. Heating is stopped once the temperature is reached to achieve temperature control. Low-speed intermittent stirring is maintained throughout the temperature control process to prevent the slurry from adhering to the stirring cup wall and to prevent continuous sedimentation, thus ensuring the slurry's texture. Those skilled in the art should understand that the aforementioned preset time intervals, stirring speeds, and stirring durations are merely illustrative examples of redistribution and discharge. The specific values ​​described above do not represent all embodiments of this disclosure. Other feasible preset time intervals, stirring speeds, and stirring durations are all within the protection scope of the embodiments of this disclosure. As an optional embodiment, slurry cup malfunctions can also occur during the pulping stage. When a slurry cup malfunction occurs during the pulping stage, the pulping process continues normally, and the status of the slurry cup is monitored in real time. The remaining processes can be found in the descriptions of the above embodiments.

[0060] As an optional embodiment, taking the residual water box as an example, the drainage stage is described as the stage of draining cleaning wastewater:

[0061] If an abnormality occurs in the residual water box during the cleaning stage, the cleaning process should immediately stop heating and stirring, and an alarm should be triggered for the residual water box abnormality. If the residual water box abnormality does not resolve, the cleaning process should continue to stop or the residual water may be accidentally discharged. During this process, due to the prolonged stop time, food residue stuck inside the mixing cup will gradually cool and stick to the cup wall, making it difficult to clean. Food residue on the heating plate that is not stirred and cleaned in time will also become difficult to clean.

[0062] Therefore, during the preset working stage before the wastewater discharge stage is completed, it is determined whether the abnormality of the residual water box has been resolved; if the abnormality of the residual water box has not been resolved, the pulping equipment is controlled to enter the cleaning and holding stage.

[0063] The cleaning and holding phase includes a combination of one or more of the following actions: agitating the cleaning water with a stirring element; heating and maintaining the temperature of the cleaning water; and re-injecting the cleaning water.

[0064] As an exemplary embodiment, during continuous cleaning, the stirring device of the pulping equipment is controlled to stir at a second preset speed; for example, stirring can be performed at the stirring speed of normal cleaning, which can prevent residue from sticking to the container wall or heating plate. During continuous cleaning, the cleaning wastewater can also be kept warm; for example, a second temperature value of the cleaning wastewater can be obtained; when the second temperature value is less than the second target temperature, the heating device of the pulping equipment is controlled to heat the cleaning wastewater to the second target temperature.

[0065] The following will describe the workflow when the residual water tank malfunctions, using specific exemplary embodiments:

[0066] If an abnormality is detected in the residual water tank during the cleaning process, the cleaning process continues while a residual water tank abnormality warning is issued. If the residual water tank recovers before the end of the cleaning cycle, the wastewater is discharged and the system enters standby mode. If the residual water tank does not recover before the end of the cleaning cycle, the system enters agitation mode after the normal cleaning cycle is completed. In this mode, the residual water tank is continuously monitored. If the residual water tank recovers, the wastewater is discharged and the system enters standby mode. If the residual water tank does not recover, the system continues in agitation mode.

[0067] In the stirring mode, a constant stirring speed of 5000 rpm is maintained, along with temperature control at 50°C. During operation, the wastewater temperature is kept at 50°C while stirring continues. Under these conditions, food residue inside the stirring cup will not dry on the cup wall, and food residue at the bottom of the heating plate will not stick to the heating plate. The stirring mode effectively maintains the cleaning process, and the cleaning wastewater can be immediately drained after any abnormal recovery of the residual water box, preventing food residue from sticking together. Those skilled in the art should understand that the above-mentioned stirring speed and holding temperature are merely illustrative examples of redistribution and discharge. The specific values ​​described above do not represent all embodiments of this disclosure, and other feasible stirring speeds and holding temperatures are within the protection scope of the embodiments of this disclosure.

[0068] As an exemplary embodiment, the detachable component may also be a water tank, and the second working stage is a pulping and water adding stage and / or a cleaning and water adding stage.

[0069] The water tank needs to be filled with water during both the pulping and cleaning stages. When the detachable component is a water tank, before entering the pulping and / or cleaning water filling stages, the pulping equipment is controlled to continue working according to a preset work stage execution sequence before the pulping and / or cleaning water filling stages, until the pulping and / or cleaning water filling stages are entered, at which point the pulping equipment is controlled to stop pulping or stop cleaning. For example, if an abnormality is detected in the water tank before pulping begins, preventing water from entering, it will have a significant impact on the entire pulping process, and work should be stopped. After pulping is completed, if an abnormality occurs in the water tank, such as tank displacement or water shortage, it will have a significant impact on the cleaning stage. Therefore, after completing the work before the cleaning water filling stage, the equipment can enter a waiting state, such as stopping work, before entering the cleaning water filling stage.

The body includes a processing chamber 11 and a stirring component for stirring materials. The pulping apparatus includes a processor at the hardware level, and optionally also includes a memory and a bus. In addition, the pulping apparatus may also include other hardware required for business operations.
